Abstract

A disposable absorbent pad is removably attachable to the upper surface of the visor of a helmet, hardhat, cap or other headgear. The pads are made in various sizes, shapes and colors to conform to the visors to which they may be applied. Their obverse sides consist of a high-capacity absorbent material, while their reverse sides contain an adhesive strip, for hard visor surfaces, or hook-and-loop strips, for fabric visors. The pads prevent liquid/moisture from dripping off the visor into the face and eyes of the wearer and are disposably replaceable after each use.
